  • I have dined here about 10 times now over the years. I am finally writing my review but have held off from doing so for so long because of my decision on how I wanted to write it. Like the book you didn't like but kept on reading it. This review is not for the Teppanyaki but for the Sushi side of the restaurant. I've had the Teppanyaki here before and I have to say that they do try to make a show of it and it is decent. A reason why this place is so popular with those not from Japan. It's really a westernized form of Japanese food that is entertaining for the customers to dine at. Sure this is why Teppanyaki or Japanese steak houses do so well. For me however I prefer the simpler forms of Japanese food and sushi is not it either. Sure you can be wowed at the variety of sushi rolls and the colours and flavours but is this real Japanese food I ask? No, not really. Yet I can't figure out why people love this place so much. Okay Okay, I can be very picky when it comes to this form of food. Here is why I am not agreeing with most people here. I had the Prince Special which was a mixed grill of meats and veggies panfried with the typical Japanese soya sauce and sugars and it came with a salad. I didn't take a picture of the salad, it was pretty anemic and sad looking. However, it did taste good; 2.5 stars. Presentation I'd give them a 1 star for that. Sorry for being so harsh. The meats and veggies did taste quite good. I'll give them that. If I had that unexperienced Japanese pallet I really would have enjoyed it like my friends did. Sashimi, there wasn't much on the menu. I don't think I found anything and ended up asking for whatever they had to suggest. I gather the customer base here are not the sashimi type of diners and maybe this is because it's Mississauga and not Toronto and it's near the Airport where you get a lot of tourists... We got hamachi, toro, salmon and the much well loved "butter fish". I heard stories of butter fish which could result in unwanted "leakage" if you consumed too much. The limit should be 4 slices? I had 4 slices at least. Hmmmmm I won't say what happened. Sushi, is decent. Lots of special rolls for those who like to eat sushi, but really don't like raw fish and want to disguise it with other things. You'll see those diners dousing their sushi in a lot of soya sauce and wasabi. Regardless of my review, people will come here and simply love the place. Moreso for the teppanyaki side than the sushi side. Still it will be here for years to come as this is a staple for Prince fans who constantly rave about this place. I really don't understand why to be honest. One thing I do have to write is this is not Japanese. I don't think I saw any Japanese people there working and to be honest? If there was a Japanese cook in the kitchen they wouldn't serve the food the way it looked. There should be that sense of pride.
